I simply have a suspicion that part of the reason the O's new owners pushed this trade was that they will try to extend him. I don't think that's totally off the wall.
-
Well, this time at least we added a smart guy instead of another stupid one. Also, Theo worked closely with Breslow with the Cubs. They already have a good relationship. That can't hurt. -
You'll see.
-
Not really. He's bombastic. If Burnes likes Baltimore and they make him an offer he likes, Boras will just be the guy doing the paperwork.
-
He also said Blake Snell should get 9 years and 270 million. He's not always a fountain of solid information.
-
That and sign a damn starting pitcher, and we're back in the mix.
-
+1 The only really bad troll we've had here the last few years was Yankee fan "JDavis76" who started out as "Babe" on the Boston.com board.
-
The other thing is we have to see how much loot fellow Boras clients Snell and Montgomery end up getting...
-
Do you think this trade would even have happened without them coming on board? The new guys are loaded, the rest will sort itself out. I like my dramatic narrative and I'm running with it for now...
-
Unless he gets blown away. The new owners might be all in on a hefty extension offer and had it in mind when they did this.
-
The consensus seems to be that the O's did well on the deal. That's not the same as saying they gave up very little, of course.
-
Gotta hope so.
-
It might not do a thing for the 2024 team, but it does qualify as good news for a change.
-
Nah, that never happens. When we traded Mookie we all knew he was going to free agency...

-
Breslow, Bailey and the other new gurus are going to teach our pitchers to throw so hard that reliance on defense will be minimized.
-
They had the perfect chance to do the enema and they passed it up.
-
Both would be even more fun.
-
I agree, what Henry needs is to be totally humiliated to the point that even he can't stand it.
-
Maybe the "Fenway Experience" will eventually include "free" entertainment programming that fans can watch on their cell phones if they're tired of watching the un-entertaining team on the field.
-
And like I said in the other thread, maybe the O's will also sign Monty or Snell now. What a kick in the head that would be to the stunned bunnies that make up our front office.
-
I don't see how the 10%/5 runs thing does anything for your argument. You'd have to look at the details of why it was a save.
-
I think moon and I did this to death already. I think I sort of got him to concede it wasn't a major overpay at the time.
-
What would really be hilarious now is if the O's also sign Snell or Monty. Our humiliation would be almost complete then.
-
Only thing is, the current version of the 2024 Sox looks to have an excellent chance of being even worse than the 2022-2023 teams. The plan might shift to "Fire sale and tank!" before our eyes.
